Rent Banks assist individuals and families when they find themselves in crisis, by providing small, low interest, loans to keep people in stable rental housing, or to pay utilities that are in arrears. Rent bank loans are for people who are in stable housing, but who have been challenged by an emergency situation that jeopardizes their income. Rent Bank loans are for people who do not qualify for other types of funding; people who would otherwise be left to fall through the cracks and enter the cycle of homelessness. Successful applicants will be families with the ability to make the small loan payments and engage in some financial training.
Please support us, the more funds we raise the more families we can keep housed! Operation of the Rent Bank will begin February 2013 with funding support from:· The Interior Savings Community Investment Fund - $6,928
· The Kelson Group - $5,000
· United Way TNC - $3,000
· The Stollery Charitable Foundation - $27,000
